Severe Storms likely to impact central Nebraska this weekend

HASTINGS, Neb. (KSNB) – Chances of thunderstorms moving into the region as the day moves on. We’ll see these storms start to form near Valentine and continue to make their way to the south east. As they do, they bring the chance for severe weather along with them. This is a part of a cold front and low pressure system and a cold front, which will mix with warm air being shifted up from the south by a high pressure system. The mixing of these two will create instability in the atmosphere which gives us an enhanced chance for severe showers and thunderstorms. We’re looking at strong chances of hail as well as wind throughout the region. The chance for tornadoes is low.

As we move towards the weekend the chance for thunderstorms overnight and early morning return overnight. We’ll see partly cloudy skies over the day which will cool us off over the weekend, which means that we likely won’t even see temperatures cross the 80 barrier on Saturday or Sunday. As we get back into next week, we’ll see temperatures start to pop back up to where they should be this time of year in the high 80s to low 90s.
